This Week in History at Casual Kitchen:

Ask Casual Kitchen: Best Investing Books (September 2010)
Admittedly this post is a bit far afield from food, but long-time CK readers know that I used to live inside the Matrix, working as a Wall Street analyst and picking stocks so that rich people could get richer. Here's a post where I share some of my favorite investing resources for regular people.

Keyword Gawking (September 2009)
